NEW YORK--May 21, 2002--Rockstar Games, the world-renowned publishing
division of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), proudly
announces Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, the follow-up to the global blockbuster
title Grand Theft Auto 3. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is the latest installment
in the gaming franchise that has exceeded 11 million units in total sales
to-date. It will be available exclusively for PlayStation(R)2 and is expected
to hit retail shelves in the United States on October 22nd. Grand Theft Auto:
Vice City will surpass the unprecedented gameplay, cinematic graphics and
immersive audio experience that gamers associate with Grand Theft Auto 3, which
was released in October 2001 and has rapidly become the fastest selling, highest
grossing game for PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system to date, with
global sales exceeding 6 million units. Rockstar Games will release additional
information about the game's content in July, but the following details are
clear: It's an entirely new game set in the '80s, the location is Vice City,
and the vibe is glamour, power and corruption...

Sam Houser, the executive producer of the Grand Theft Auto franchise and
president of Rockstar Games, commented, "The success of Grand Theft Auto 3
has made us very proud, but it has also motivated us enormously. The work
currently being done by our development and production teams in Edinburgh and
New York is going to surpass the efforts of last year, as we set our sights on
making an even more revolutionary gaming experience. This will be reflected in
the size of the game, the scope of the gameplay, the extent of the gameplayer's
freedom, the quality of production value and the all-important sense of
style."

Les Benzies, the producer of Grand Theft Auto games, noted,
"Although it may appear to be a challenge to develop a game superior to
Grand Theft Auto 3, our progress to date on Vice City makes me highly confident
that we can deliver a truly innovative game." Kelly Sumner, Take-Two
Interactive Software's Chief Executive Officer added, "Grand Theft Auto 3
has become the "must-have" title for PlayStation(R)2 and is
appropriately regarded as a landmark in interactive entertainment. We are
delighted with the plans for Vice City, and are totally committed to supporting
Rockstar's creative efforts and investing in the development and marketing
approach that made Grand Theft Auto 3 such a tremendous success."
